It is a modern day take on a Love Story. Im glad the film is getting a global release with Zee5 giving it the voice and visibility it deserves. Looking forward to the audience response.Director Priyadarshan reveals, Anamika is a quintessential housewife in her late 30s, but her love life is a bit dry with negligible attention from her husband. This slice of life romantic drama is an everyday story of a lot of middle-aged women wanting a bit of love and Anamika is their mascot. The film has a relatability factor which I hope the audience will connect with. Desire will take center stage and the story is a visual representation of it and I hope the audience enjoys watching it. Premiering 9th September on ZEE5.Director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury shares, The film Rules of the Game is about a couple in their 30s wanting to add a bit of spice in their relationship. I believe its a constant struggle in any monogamous relationship to keep the romance quotient high. I am sure many of you in this generation will relate to the film in some form or the other. The millennials arent foreign to the art of role-playing, but what if it takes a wrong turn? Its a fun, thrilling ride for the audience and I cant wait for the premiere on ZEE5.Director Mahesh Manjrekar says, Diagnosis Of Love is a crime thriller that revolves around a blooming love story between a surgeon and a colleague. People can expect drama, romance and action. Every love story is incomplete without a villain and Diagnosis Of Love is a complete package. Looking forward to the release on ZEE5.Forbidden Love, an array of 4 feature films premiering 9th& 24th September on ZEE5.
